Don't be an apologist for people who ask stupid or ill-phrased questions.
Don't pander to the lowest level. I provided a reply which I thought was
appropriate to the question. It was slightly sarcastic, though, by Usenet
standards, reasonably civilized. It provided three direct lines of search
for what was a very nebulous and obvious query. At no point did I attack the
poster, demean his mentality, question his civilization, or impugn the
length of his manhood.

Further, I hope your self-worth is well seasoned, or at least insulated, as
you don't seem to understand the difference between Usenet and Ham Radio.
Cranking off a dumb query on Usenet is equivalent to tuning up on a repeater
or net frequency. It's a bad use of electrons, and you can expect to be
chastised.

Perhaps I shouldn't be so harsh with you, as you can't seem to follow the
thread. If you were, you would have noticed that I provided considerable
background on RF absorbent material in a subsequent post.

Now, do YOU have anything informative to add to the subject, or are you just
trolling for sympathy? BTW, in addition to being in the dictionary,
"sympathy" yields about 3,700,000 hits on Google. Now there's a project for
your dotage.

Aha! Another pompous, sarcastic, smug, overbearing, insufferable post from
a
gentleman whose acumen is as nebulous as his reply is asinine. You should
get a job at a community college, Ed. College students are inured to your
particular brand of snide, demeaning discourse, since many teachers use
it as a technique for avoiding having to answer questions requiring knowledge
those teachers don't possess.
